@TapintoPoetry Hybrid poem sent 🤓

[Emma Datson @emma_datson]

when I die
send me to him
burn me
he will find a
beautiful beach
to spread
me on and take
me into his
skin and we
will be akin
until the nexus

I'm such a fool for you
Just one more time
Cold cold heart

Can you feel
That slow turning pain
So severe

[Emma Datson @emma_datson]

You are my why
But I am not yours
What am I to do?

[Emma Datson @emma_datson]

Lightning on my skin
The gecko calling grace
Fire in my life dragging me
Into the darkness
Whilst my yearning is howled
By curlews off in the night

Why are you there clearly when we not meant

[Emma Datson @emma_datson]

So many memories but no more to be
We are trapped in the ladder of pain
Not go be together on this plain
When it's the nexus in the stars,
On their way there they should be

Red dirt aches
Orange sky cries
Why?

The serene siren is lost, deep down, so dark

[Emma Datson @emma_datson]

Trapped behind the wire
So lost in the dark
I give up
Not long now

Dewey my tuxedo cat

[Emma Datson @emma_datson]

Her black and white
Guard purred as she
Patted him then turned
Into one of those French
Girls upon his back the
Serene siren just hanging
On ponders on grief
Given by a grevious one

[Emma Datson @emma_datson]

You don't think
That I love you.
Too much of a
Show or fuss or
Something from the
Highly strung girl.
Oh but I do. I
Do love you. It's
Just that I love
You in the only
Way I know how too.
Loudly, messily,
Obsessively, truly,
Wholly and yes I'm
Sorry to say,
Clumsily too.

[Emma Datson @emma_datson]

Primary diagnosis
given, depression
roaring through my
veins. Can I do it?
Can I exist as the
person too difficult?
Just being me? You
know can I do that?
